Description
Rigaku NEX CG delivers rapid qualitative and quantitative determination of major and minor atomic elements in a wide variety of sample types with minimal standards.
NEX CG is a flexible instrument able to satisfy the needs the needs of a wide range of customers among university research, environmental lab and QC laboratory in industry.
NEX CG is powered by a new qualitative and quantitative analytical software, RPF-SQX, that features Rigaku Profile Fitting (RPF) technology.
The software allows semi-quantitative analysis of almost all sample types without standards and rigorous quantitative analysis with standards.
Rigaku has developped many applications:
- Mining
- Soil
- Cement
- Plastic
- Food
- Cosmetics
- Polymers
- Waste analysis
- Used oils
- Petrochemical
- Lubricants
- Fuels
- Air quality filters
The minimum sample manipulation of the sample and the software developped in a user friendly and guided way enable a non qualified user to perform all the routine operations at the same time the instrument can satisfy the needs of a researcher.
Unlike conventional EDXRF analyzers, the NEX CG was engineered with a unique close-coupled Cartesian Geometry (CG) optical kernel that dramatically increases signal-to-noise. By using secondary target excitation, instead of convention direct excitation, sensitivity is further improved. The resulting dramatic reduction in background noise, and simultaneous increase in element peaks, result in a spectrometer capable of routine trace element analysis even in difficult sample types.
Il tubo RX ha una durata illimitata grazie al fatto che risulta sovradimensionato rispetto ai normali valori di massimo utilizzo della macchina.
The instrument can perform multielement analysis art concentration from ppm to percent for elements from sodium (Na 11) to uranium (U 92)
The instrument can work under different conditions:
- Atmospheric pressure
- Under vacuum
- with Helium purge
The samples analyzed can be in different forms:
- Solid
- Liquids
- Powders
- Paste
- Film
The use of NEX CG can be summarized in three simple steps:
1 - Minimum sample preparation
2 - Loading the sample
3 - Fast and accurate results
